EyeAlone Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 My exboyfriend and I of 3.5 years broke up back in March and I was completely devastated. All of my hopes and dreams were crushed. I felt like I couldn't go on living and that I'll never find someone as good as him. I had many breakdowns and spent numerous hours with my psychologist. Well in the past few months, I've done some soul-searching and spent some time evaluating the relationship. Man, hindsight is definitely 20/20. There were so many red flags at the beginning of the relationship that I chose to ignore. Then I just lost my identity in the relationship and conformed to what he wanted. Truth be told, the best thing that happened in that relationship was the breakup! Anyway, I started dating again this past weekend, and guess who I get a call from today, begging for me to take him back?!?! Yep, my ex! HAHAHA! I can't believe it! Well, actually I can because the exact same thing happened with my previous ex. If he had called a few months ago, I probably would have foolishly gone back to him. I'm so glad that I had this time to realize what I want in a relationship and how I want to be treated. I don't know if there's any point in this post, but I just felt like I should share it in case there's anyone out there who felt as miserable as I did back in March. Life has a funny way of helping you out. Now back to sifting through guys on Match and OkCupid.....
daphne Posted July 28, 2010 Posted July 28, 2010 I'm surprised nobody responded. Congratulations! It does seem uncanny how guys sniff other guys and come back around that time. Not before you could live without them. Two exes ago came around a year later, one month after I started dating my last ex. I remember thinking "why hasn't he called? I just knew he would call." A couple of weeks later he emailed me. Keep moving forward. Someone that can put you through that hurt can do it again. It's not worth it to me. I'm not a fan of second chances any more.
